Pretty basic options and I'm working on changing that. Two new battery's for 200 amh are ready to be installed along with a new dometic 65l compressor fridge. I'm also changing the 2 burner stove for a 3 burner one. Does anyone else have any mods that are a most do? Thanks for your advice and insights.

What a great looking camper!
Have fun with the mods.
Your old camper setup looks pretty sweet too.
Someone will pick that up and make a great project out of it.

OH we have mods for you! First though we need to know a little more about your style of camping and assorted stuff. First thing I'd do is toss the jacks if you leave the pavement. Oh, and congrats

I like boon docking almost always. I never go to camp grounds unless I have too. So I will add solar system of some kind. I want a rack on the rear bumper for my spare tire, Honda 2000 generator and a gas can or two. So I'll look around Vegas to find some one that can make me one. (I don't have any wielding or cutting touches at my house.)
The truck has already had about every part I can think of bolted on and more new parts then I would care to list but it's up and running strong. Only has 113k miles. Not bad for a 25 year old rig. I'll post some pictures of the fridge and battery set up. Trying to get some things done before a 3 day camping trip this weekend at the coral sand dunes.

Nice fit for your truck.

What's wrong with the old one?
Looks just like ours.
